We present a new exact solution for self-dual Abelian gauge fields living on the space of the Kerr-Taub-bolt instanton, which is a generalized example of asymptotically flat instantons with non-self-dual curvature, by constructing the…
We demonstrate the existence of a broad class of non-perturbative fermionic solutions to the Euclidean supergravity equations of motion, which are half-BPS and nonsingular, possess zero action, and obey an (anti)self-duality condition.…
We study non-Einstein Bach-flat gravitational instanton solutions that can be regarded as the generalization of the Taub-NUT/Bolt and Eguchi-Hanson solutions of Einstein gravity to conformal gravity. These solutions include non-Einstein…
Making use of ansatzs for the form fields in the 10d type IIA supergravity version of the ABJM model, we come with a solution in the Euclidean signature recognized as a monopole instanton-like object. Indeed we will see that we can have a…
We study N=2 supersymmetric Abelian gauge model with the Fayet-Iliopoulos term and an arbitrary number of chiral matter multiplets in two dimensions. By analyzing the instanton contribution we compute the non-perturbative corrections to the…
Starting from the self-dual "triplet" of gravitational instanton solutions in Euclidean gravity, we obtain the corresponding instanton solutions in string theory by making use of the target space duality symmetry. These dual triplet…
Unitary anti-self-dual connections on Asymptotically Locally Flat (ALF) hyperk\"ahler spaces are constructed in terms of data organized in a bow. Bows generalize quivers, and the relevant bow gives rise to the underlying ALF space as the…
We show that self-dual electromagnetism in noncommutative spacetime is equivalent to self-dual Einstein gravity.
A new two-parameter asymptotically flat (AF) toric gravitational instanton is identified as a special case of the Euclidean double Kerr-NUT solution, by imposing certain symmetry and regularity conditions on its rod structure. These…
It is shown that a gauged nonlinear $O(3)$ sigma model with anomalous magnetic moment interaction in $2+1$ dimensions is exactly integrable for static, self-dual field configurations. The matter fields are exactly equivalent to those of the…
It was recently conjectured that a certain vacuum Kerr-Schild spacetime, which may be regarded as a self-dual analog of the Kerr metric, is equivalent to the self-dual Taub-NUT instanton. We confirm this conjecture by applying the…
We study U(1) and U(2) instanton solutions on noncommutative R^4 based on the noncommutative version of ADHM equation proposed by Nekrasov and Schwarz. It is shown that the anti-self-dual gauge fields on self-dual noncommutative R^4…
We discuss four-dimensional "spatially homogeneous" gravitational instantons. These are self-dual solutions of Euclidean vacuum Einstein's equations with potentially non-vanishing cosmological constant. They are endowed with a product…
The explicit multi-instanton solutions by 'tHooft and Jackiw, Nohl & Rebbi are generalized to curvilinear coordinates. The idea is that a gauge transformation can notably simplify the expressions obtained after the change of variables. The…
We study U(1) and U(2) noncommutative instantons on R^2_{NC} x R^2_C based on the ADHM construction. It is shown that a mild singularity in the instanton solutions for both self-dual and anti-self-dual gauge fields always disappears in…
In this note we address the problem of finding Abelian instantons of finite energy on the Euclidean Schwarzschild manifold. This amounts to construct self-dual L^2 harmonic 2-forms on the space. Gibbons found a non-topological L^2 harmonic…
The double copy is a map from non-abelian gauge theories to gravity, that has been demonstrated both for scattering amplitudes and exact classical solutions. In this study, we reconsider the double copy for exact solutions that are…
We show that the Riemannian Schwarzschild and the ``Taub-bolt'' instanton solutions are the only spaces (M,g) such that 1) M is a 4-dimensional, simply connected manifold with a Riemannian, Ricci-flat C^2-metric g which admits (at least) a…
Conformal self-dual fields in flat space-time of even dimension greater than or equal to four are studied. Ordinary-derivative formulation of such fields is developed. Gauge invariant Lagrangian with conventional kinetic terms and…
Gravitational instantons ''Lambda-instantons'' are defined here for any given value Lambda of the cosmological constant. A multiple of the Euler characteristic appears as an upper bound for the de Sitter action and as a lower bound for a…
